Changes for 2012

What We Like

This is a perfect vehicle for those who want a luxury vehicle without paying a huge price. It performs well, has some nice power, and it looks stunning. It’s entry-level, but it feels like much more when you get behind the wheel. Some of the other features that are notably great include the intelligent cruise control system, and the 7-inch LCD info screen in the vehicle.

What Concerns Us

We like quite a bit about the vehicle, but there are some issues that are cause for a bit of concern. The vehicle performs well, but it does tend to use a lot of gas. In addition, with the coupe and the convertible options, there is not as much headroom as you might want or need.
